Hello. I know there is an awesome EXE file txt2bas which enables me to convert plain txt to a Tap file.

But that's all it actually do;
It literaly converts any txt to a tap file.
Does not add line numbers, does not add nothing...

If (previously) in the source file was not added, for example:

10 DATA "...
(at the beginning of every line of the imported text)

Then - that text would result just in the
Syntax error
in a such created Tap file.

I am looking in the possibility of importing books, or other kind of reading material - in to the Euphoric emulator.

So - just an idea / question?
Is there an (allready - maybe) the easy way to do THAT?

For example - the utility similar to the allready existing txt2bas.exe.

But with the added features like the:
- Adding short viewer program at the beginning of the imported text so that the Euphoric can actually show and scroll trough the imported Text,
- Imported text maybe to be imported in DATA, or String (or some other, similar) format,
- To support maybe a simple Text Search (from within the TAP file created).

Yes I know Euphoric can handle only up to the about 40kb of DATA.
Approximatly 20 Word pages.
But, using it on Android - it IS easier (and - for me more apriciated) to read something - in my "own native" enviorment rather than using for example Microsoft product

For this purpose I at least use Excell on computer to:
- Add number rows for Euphoric, like:
1
2
3
4
5
and so on,

What you could do instead, is to just used HEADER.EXE to convert your file into a TAP file that loads as binary to a specific address, this way you don't waste any room at all and you can store any file that fits in the memory limit without even thinking about how much space is wasted with line numbers, etc...

The on the side you can do a viewer program that can read the memory location where you loaded the other data and display it on screen. You could even have different viewers for different format of files.

If you make it a DISK based program, using SEDORIC 3, you even have access to all these fancy new commands like "move" that can copy directly stuff from memory to the screen to avoid slow PEEK and POKE.

And then I just rename the Printer.Out file (created with the Euphoric!!!) in to the GhostMouse.rms file,
Then I right-click it, to open RMS file with GhostMouse,
Then I open the desired TXT file that I want to convert (in Notepad, Wordpad, or Word - whatever - any will work),
Then Press F9 to start Ghost Mouse to run on that text with THIS (In Euphoric created) RMS script (!)

AND IT CONVERTS ANY TXT, in any textual editor - in to Basic acceptable format, that is - in to the following format:
